lege campuses. According to Mary Mahoney. resident hall director of Pacelli, the incident report said a few girls on the third noor Pacelli noticed a strange man walking around their noor and called security. Security searched Pacelli and Millor Halls and, eventu.ally, guard Mau Goffos tackled him outside Millorwith the help several students. According to Detective Sergeant James Rohal of the UHPD, the police found a bag of possibly

stolen articles in Williams' car. Among the items found in the bag was a Pacelli Hall key that had been reported missing. "People need to be more aware of the1r personal safety and the locking of their doors," said Rohal. He also stressed the importance of reporting crime incidences. "Without the immediate response of the residents in Pacelli, we wouldn't have been able to finally apprehend a suspect," said Mahoney.

Visser predicts apartheid·s future by Chuck Beilstein News Reporter Professor Nicholas Visser of the University of Capetown described the political projections made by five South African writers. Visser delivered his SPeech "PoliticsofFuture Projections"to more than 500 students. He gave insights into works depicting the outcome of apartheid. Visser began by discussing Arthur Keppel-Jones' WhenSmws Goes.. The work is a "history of South Africa from 1952to2010," which was actually published in 1946. Keppel-Jones assumes the end ofapartheid by violent means, but Visser claims the author offers an unrealistic picture of black

Karen Palmer, a clinical nutritionist with St. Vincent Charity Hospital and Psychiatric Services of Cleveland, claims the media culture of the 80s and 90s promotes healthy attitudes about eating. "However, it is taken to such extremes," Palmer said. "If you are standing in line at a grocery store,look at the magazine covers," Palmer suggests. Woman's Day and Family Ci(cle often have wonderful desserts on the cover, but also display a caption on how to lose 10 pounds in two weeks. "This creates a lot of confusion and mixed messages," Palmer observed. Palmer also· said, "Marilyn Monroe would not be cast in the same roles today because she wouJd be too heavy." In the middle 60s female sex symbols started to have incredibly thin bodies, said Palmer, citing the 60s supennodel Twiggy as an example. This thin, "ideal" body was coveted by the junior Carroll student "I wanted to be really, really skinny," she said. People with Anorexia Nervosa or Bulimia Nervosaare obsessed with their weight.

For the anorexic, thinness is auained through self-starVation. The buhm ic, however, controls her weight by purging through the use of laxatives, vomiting, diet piUs, and diuretics. Debbie is a Baldwin-Wallace graduate, who has been struggling with this problem since her college years. Though she is getting professional help for "bulimia with anorexic tendencies," as she prefers to call her disorder, Debbie still struggles with her perception of the perfect body. "I still would like to be super skinny," she admits. "I weigh

Doctors recommend that the student ~e a counselor weekly or monthly. At this stage, a behavioral contract is introduced. Then, "the financial burden is definitely on them," Byrnes said.

"In one sense it would be easy to fall bac.lc: into, but when I look back I see how much I threw away. You lose everything. People can only do so much and then it's up 10 you,'' she said.

Project Gold gleams in community service by Mikelhomas, Staff Reporter While wallcing around the John Carroll campus, one can't help but notice the multitude of flyers for Project Gold. Wishing lO learn more about this city-wide service project, I contacted Joe Cimperrnan, its chief organizer, and set up the following interview. Thomas: What is Project Gold? CimpefmQn: Project Gold is a Student Union-based endeavor in which all organizations that are chartered for community service will have access 10 service. We're doing this through a variety of ways: whether it's Lambda Gamma Sigma with Templum House, which is a home for baueredwomen,orwhetherit'llbetheKnightsofColumbus painting a soup kitchen. Project Gold is based on the fact that organizations like these have it in their charters to do service,andtheSU isnowprovidingthemtheopportunity. It is also a chance for individuals who have an interest in community service, but are not pan of a chartered organization, 10 become involved. Thomas:

What is the ongm of the name "Project

Gold?" Cimpermt~n: ProjectGoldreallycameupinApril when I was elected chiefjustice. I knew there was something like this that I want.ed 10 do. And talking about it with Dave Averill, the SU president, we weren't sure how real we could make this. The concept was conceived before the name was. At flfSt, it was 10 be named after the school color, gold, which implied purity, etc. But over the summer, talking with Mike Gallagher in the development office, Project Gold gained a new facet, a new shadow if

you will. There's a biblical quote which says, "Like gold in the fire, they were tested" from Wisdom, chapter two, verses two through four. Project Gold now has that as its theme. Like gold in the fire, we are being tested. Thomas: How do you plan 10 carry out this large scale service project? Cimperman: Basically, there are four phases to Project Gold. Phase one w111 include all of the groups that are chartered for community service; phase two will be all other students who would like 10 become involved, but aren't obligated to do so by a charter; phase three will be trips like the one we're going on to Washington, D.C. which is entitled "A Different Kind of Christmas" where students can travel outside the Oeveland area to experience service; and phase four deals with the future of Project Gold and how we can truly make this a school-wide involvement. We plan to carry out these four phases through the S U, and through organizations such as Malachi House, Templum House, St. Herman's House of Hospitality, and other service projects that come our way. Thomas: What locale does this project encompass? Cimptrman: Right now, it's encompassing the Cleveland area We're trying to work with the near west side just because of the plethora of organizations that subside there. Over 64 social service agencies are located within a flve square-mile area, which makes it one of the most socially active areas in the United States. Honestly, we'd like to see the area extended to wherever Carroll students go. Project Gold is something which we hope will not only happen here, but will instill future development as people move on.

Thomas: What do you hope that those who give their time will gain from this experience? Cimperman: We hope that they gain two things: one is awareness, and the other is a sense of action. An awareness that there are poor people ten minutes away from Carroll who need our help, and that we are people who are more than capable of giving help. We are the chosen. We are students who have been selected from all over, and we make up the Carroll community. It's not only our ability to do so, but in a sense, we are obligated to help those around us. From those to whom much is given, much is to be expected. Thomas: What are your hopes and plans for the future of Project Gold? Cimperman: We do hope that it will continue at Carroll so that students to come will be able to experience it. We also hope that this sense of action will carry on as people graduate. Perhaps if individuals have some experience working in a soup kitchen like St. Herman's, qr with a bauered women's shelter like Templum House, they'll be more inclined to do so on a weekly or even monthly basis after they leave Carroll. There's a quote by Mitch Snyder that fits quite appropriately: "It's better 10 touch one person deeply than to interest ten thousand. In the old days, Christians used 10 recogmze each other by drawing fish in the sand with their feet Today, Christians recognize each other by their actions."

Editor's Mte: Mitch Snydu,who recently died,was a homeless activist based in Washington, D.C. Cimperman worked with Snyder this past summer at a homeless shelter over which Snyder assumed directorship in 1974.

Japanese eyes look at Cleveland six ways at Grasselli exhibit By Chris Reed Entertainment Staff Does every John Carroll student and staff member think they know Cleveland? Well, think again, becausetheMitzie Verne Gallery in the Grasselli Library currently has an eJthibit that could changeoutlookson Cleveland. The elthibit, entitled Si.x Views Of Cleveland, by Keiji Shinohara and his wife, Sachilco Furui, will appear as part of the Mitzie Verne Collection ofJapanese Art through Dec. 29. This is the groundbreaking event oftheJapanStudyGroupoftheCleveland Council on World Affairs and consists of several woodblock prints of different Cleveland area scenes. They include scenes of Liule Italy,

Fagan's in the Flats, and the Terminal Tower. These Si.x Views have some common themes. For starters, there is the obviousCievelandconnection. Also, some of the depicted places have been rejuvenated recently, such as Tower City, the Flats, and the Playhouse. They paint an optimistic portrait of the city and almost all present recognizable Cleveland locations. The artwork works through its suggestiveness, instead of bluntly forcing itself on the viewer. The colors used in Si.x Views arc reminiscent of those that might be found in southwest American Indian artwork. Shinohara and his wife were born in Japan, but now live near Boston. He commented at the openmg of the

eJthibit that he loved all of the Cleveland prints, but the Little Italy print wa~ his favorite. He has visited all of the Cleveland scenes he depicts, eJtcept his Metropark print. He said he wanted his art to be creative and "not just a photo." Shinoharadoes this by creating an atmosphere that enhances the prints. Now Shinohara and his wife focus on woodblock printing. Their work is a joint effort; Furui sketches scenes and suggest colors to be used and Shinohara carves the woodblocks. Two other series by Shinohara and Furui, Eight Views of New England, and The Taichi Series, wh1ch shows a nine month development of Taichi,their son, will also be displayed m the collection.

Sibling Rivalry proves too subdued to be funny By Melodie Smith Entertainment Staff

Sibling Rivalry isanew film starring Cheers' Kirstie Alley that is a slightly entertaining, lightweight film that unfortunately falls well short of its potcntial. Alley plays Marjorie Turner, a bored and lonely housewife who seemingly has itall,eltcept for an attentive husband and the writing career she has always wanted. She must also contend with her self-absorbed in-laws, a family full of medical degrees, but apparently lacking in any bedside manner. The elderTurners, along with their mutually annoying daughter (played by Carrie Fisher). are enough to make Ghandi lose his cool. But, Marjorie somehow just smiles and takes it In a hilarious subplot, a bumbling window-blind salesman (Bill Pullman) also gets involved in a stranger's death, not only because he thinks he killed the man, but also because he just happens to be the brother of the

cop assigned to investigate the

case. Sibling Rivalry's outrageous plot and great comedtc performances have the potential to create a very funny film. There are, in fact, a few hilarious moments,

especially the scene in which the mutally-gullt-ridden Alley and Pullman come up with various ways to make the stranger's death look like a suicide. Overall, however, the movie ends without fully satisfying the

audience's appetite for laughs. The film is too subdued, too toned down, as if its director and stars were afnud to let things get out of control. With its super-sappy ending, the film seems more like a

TV movie than a full-fledged thealrical release. Too outrageous to be a drama and too timid to be a farce, Sibling Rivalry has to settle for bemg just another harmless, but uneven comedy.

Chirayath internationalizes Carroll b y Katie Thomas

Dr. VergheseJ. Chirayath was appointed the flrst Director oflntemational Relations of John Carroll University in May of 1990. Dr. Chirayath has been a member of Carroll's sociology department for over twenty years. Chirayath, a native of India, came to the United Stales when he was 21 years old, and then came to Carroll as a teaching assistant. He obtained his Wldergraduate degree in organizational behavior from the University ofScranton in Pennsylvania and his masters from the University of Illinios. "I felt that if I wanted to embarlc on teaching as a career, I would have to spend time doing the whole thing," Chirayath explained. So Carroll held his position for him for two years while he went to Cornell to get his Ph.D. Chirayath chose to come to Carroll because of his experience of being educated at a Jesuit high school, as well as a Jesuit university. "My familiarity with Jesuit

education gave me the confidence that I would like what I found," Chirayath said. As the Director of International Relations, Chirayath has been extremely busy. He is responsible for the international studies concentration, which he descibes as being "designed to give students an overview of the interdependencies ofall nations that we Jive in today." Chirayath is pleased that an increasing number of students are becoming interested in such a program. He is in charge of the exchange program that Carroll has with two major universities in Japan. He is also striving to facilitate more exchanges with-faculty and students for study abroad. Right now Chirayath 's highest priority is to instigate a program in order to improve the university's international course offerings in an attempt tO internationalize the entire curriculum. With the help of faculty members, he has divided those who are interested into six different international areas:

Dr. Verghese Cbirayatb United Staes and Canada. Since 1988, he has made several trips to the Middle-East, and various other places such as Suadi Arabia, Jordan, and Israel. Traveling is very important to Chirayath, who speaks several languages fluently. One of his favorite statements by Mark Twain sums up his feelings about the vital importance of travel. "Fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrowmindedness, travel is the enemy of all foes to real understanding.'' He stressed the need for a greater "cultural sensitivity" throughout the world. HereatCarroll,Chirayathruns a radio program on Indian Classical Music. He also sets up and coordinates many guest speakers and international related events for the campus. With the help of the sociology department, he will present the Fr.

Europe,Hispanic, East-asian, Middle-East, Africa, and the Soviet Union. Even with all his new responsibilities, Chirayath still dearly loves teaching. He finds a great many advantages in being a teacher. "As a teacher, I am immersed in the world of ideas," Chirayath said. "I find that intrinsically invigorating. "Reality and all that we are surrounded by can best be explained theoretically, through the world of ideas. These ideas can be as vastandascomplex as freedom of capitalism, or as culturally diverse as America itself," he said. Because he considers all people to be "world citizens," Chirayath believes that each person must become active in his or her individual community as a stepping stone to involvement in society on a larger scale. Outside of his work at Carroll, Chirayath just recently had an article that he co-authored published in the Michigan Sociological Review. He also submitted a controversial article to The Plain Dealer entitled, "Saddam 's Shove and the Stalemate in Palestine." Chirayath is also a very sought after ue t lecturei' because of his depth of knowledge and familiarity with the Middle-East, primarily Saudi Arabia.

Segundo Montes, S.J., Memorial Lecture on Nov. 16 here at Carroll. Chirayath, who resides in University Heights with his wife and two teenage sons, enjoys fishing with his sons, as well as swimming and walking each morning. One of his main goals is to increase the study abroad program for students as well as faculty. Ideally he would like to make studying abroad a requirement for graduation, but he realizes that that is very unrealistic for the near future. He plans to remain here at Carroll for quite a long time. He remarks that he has seen "phenomenal improvements" in the twenty years since he has been here. "What we have to offer here at JCU is special and people are aware of the quality ofour institution," said Chirayath. He is firmly dedicated to what a university stands for. He finds his feelings are most accurately reflected in this quote by Alfred North Whitehead: "The justification for the university is that it preserves the community between knowledge and zest for life by uniting the young and the old in the imaginative consideration of learning."
